I had no clue McAfee was built into my router as there is no indication of it that I can see. I got the router for free from a mail in rebate from Toshiba.
Yes I used the same cable to connect it to the PC when I tested, if I recall correctly. And I plugged the modem into the ethernet port on my computer.
The status page on my router says this for the wan port: WAN:11M/54M
I didn't even know that there was such a full manual for my router, I thought there was just the very basic manual that came with it.

The full manual is on the cd as well. If you go to netgear it has all kinds of info for you to browse through, most of it written well enough for a networking novice to understand.
Never, ever approach a computer saying or even thinking "I will just do this quickly."

Thank you Noo-Noo and thanks to everyone else who helped me.
I'm definitely reading the manual, if I have any more questions I won't hesitate to make another thread.

Hi.
Too late really but I know a little about installing CAT5.
A good term to look for on your google travels is Structured wiring. This is a broad term that refers to pulling cable through your building.
CAT6 is a little *****ious because -- Having CAT6 cable in your home doesn't give you a CAT6 rating and CAT5 will take Gigabit ethernet if it is installed properly.
You have to know that you shouldn't run cables parrallel to power cables or close to radio interference. Think microwaves and strip lighting.
If you run near these things you will get noise in the cable and lose the integrity of the signal in the cable.
Cable breaks or serious kinks can create echos and collisions. You need all 4 pairs to use Gigabit. Obviously at present many of your network devices might not have gigabit interfaces you can stream HD video over 100mb/s
And Control Enter STILL wont let me post a reply.
